The Goa Government has sent a reminder to Sanjit Rodrigues, the Managing Director of the Goa State Infrastructure Development Corporation (GSIDC) who is also the Commissioner of the Corporation City of Panaji (CCP) seeking his explanation on his three week long absence from work in September.
In a letter to Sanjit Rodrigues, the Under Secretary Personnel Meghana Shetgaonkar has sought on a top priority by 9th November the comments of Sanjit Rodrigues on the complaint filed against him. The reminder has been sent to Sanjit Rodrigues after he failed to reply to the earlier letter sent to him by the Government on 8th October. In September Sanjit Rodrigues was untraceable and nobody at either the CCP or GSIDC knew about his whereabouts. Sanjit Rodrigues who had been seen at CCP on 4th September returned back only on September 28th after a three week long unauthorized absence. As Sanjit Rodrigues has been accused of frequently travelling abroad for shady deals of his political masters, his passport needs to be scrutinized to ascertain whether he has been obtaining necessary clearances from the Vigilance department to leave the country. Sanjit Rodrigues’s high-handed behavior and unauthorized absence from work is contrary to the service rules and the laid down protocol for government officers. His habitually disappearing without even informing his immediate subordinate officers cannot be condoned. Such conduct is also contrary to the government’s much publicized mantra of Good Governance and Transparency in Administration. In September last year Sanjit Rodrigues who is a known errand boy of Manohar Parrikar had similarly left Goa without informing and was later found trapped in the Kashmir floods. For Panaji to even dream of being a smart city the Corporation of City of Panaji would first need to have in place a full time, honest and very transparent Commissioner at the helm of affairs.
